Bethesda Game Studios writes: We are so grateful to the over 4 million of you that have already ventured into Cyrodiil with Oblivion Remastered. Thank you!
Congrats goes to Todd and everyone at Bethesda and team Xbox for another huge milestone!
Hopefully after this huge success, Phil might greenlit New Vegas Remastered powered by UE5 as well.
Fingers crossed!
I wish for, at the very least, maybe Fallout 3 remaster? I mean the success of the show proves that not just hardcore gamers are ready for a great updated Fallout game. I believe it could potentially be even more successful than the Oblivion remaster. But I do like your idea of a New Vegas UE5 , because I actually never played that. Bethesda are better under Microsoft, I agree with you now after this "remaster". It's much cheaper and faster to do something like this for an old classic game. Reminds me of when Capcom started doing that with RE2. Gamer goodwill became skyhigh for Capcom. Fingers crossed indeed
It's on GamePass. According to Steam DB: it has a 190k peak, which is not close to 4 mil. It didn't even reach 500k on Twitch stats and owner estimations are hovering around 1 mil or less.
Well done, despite not getting exact sales, this is still great news because the budget for this and the development time wouldn't have been much at all when compared to a full 6 or 7 year development window and the cost that would entail. So it does seem like a great success and even better when you consider that they shadow-dropped it without paid marketing. Hope this team is already past pre-production on another "remaster" of another classic, I'm personally hoping for Fallout 3 remaster
Microsoft realised how stupid they had been and delayed following Sega's example.
There you go MS, worldwide lots more people own PS5 or PC than Xbox. You got the money you're desperate for.
To be truly Sega, don't bother releasing a new console. Just focus on software.
"To be truly Sega, don't bother releasing a new console. Just focus on software."
MS will continue to release new consoles as they´ll continue and make tons of money out PC, PS5 and Switch 2 as well.
Gamers on other platforms will happily pay full price for amazing Xbox games while we get everything day one on Game Pass.
It´s a win win for everyone.
The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered is a reflective lens that highlights RPG evolution while proving the appeal of certain design philosophies.
That fall continues.
Year-on-year so far:
PS5
• Jan. -31%
• Feb. -7%
• Mar. -11.1%
X|S
• Jan. -48%
• Feb. -21%
• Mar. -27.5%
NS, is dominating!
Funny how the console with 'no games' outsells its key competitor by nearly 1 million units.
It's crazy to think that Xbox turned into a mobile app this gen (I called it years ago by the way.). Going from a clumsy but promising start in the 360 to this is shocking. The levels of mismanagement in this company is actually stunning.
